    You're right, but that doesn't address what i posted. How many times have reps taken cheap shots at the color of bidens skin?

    What does Biden's skin have to do with this?
    Trump and the entire GOP leadership share the same skin color.

    AND

    Maybe you forgot this?

    Resorting to ad hom fallacies only reveal ones inability to defend a position on merit. This is not about me. you are right to criticize reps on pettiness, but if you are a Democrat, you are not pointing with clean hands. I was referring to the orange skin thing, but you did use it to take a cheap shot at skin color. That certainly supports my position.

    Trump doesn't have orange skin.
    Like the self involved narcissist he is he paints himself...BADLY

    pointing it out is not "complaining"
    laughing at it is not "complaining"

    Your view, despite your claims to the contrary, and as I pointed out earlier is not balance
    and
    Your attempts at equivocating border on the absurd.

    "Trump said all Mexicans are rapists..."
    "Yeah but you laughed at his orange makeup!"

    Jesus. For ****'s sake. You SERIOUSLY believe he's orange? You think that is his actual skin color? Is anyone that divorced from reality?

    If anything, you are only supporting my position with your posts.

    Did trump really say that?

    the implication, of course, being he didn't say that...

    “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”
    https://time.com/4473972/donald-trump-mexico-meeting-insult/

    I'm pointing out how ridiculous your claims of "balance" and "both-sideism" are in the face of actual factual reality.

    I can easily defend my position. While I am no fan of trump, they are bringing crime, drugs and rape. You used "quotation" symbols to criticize something he never said. That is dishonest.

    You are certainly right to criticize reps for petty, false criticism. If you are a Democrat, you are not pointing with clean hands.

    It is an exactly quote from his 2015 campaign announcement.

    https://time.com/4473972/donald-trump-mexico-meeting-insult/

    “They are not our friend, believe me,” he said, before disparaging Mexican immigrants: “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

    I presume you think this country never had rape or drugs or crime before 2015.

    You're MAGA
    You're embarrassed by being MAGA
    The cure is to open your eyes and see the MAGA lies.

    But what you are is not balanced.

    I admire your willingness to amend your false statement. "Trump said all Mexicans are rapists..."

    Resorting to ad hom fallacies only reveals ones inability to defend a position on merit. I am not a Republican and never voted for trump. I voted for Jo.

    Your posts support my position of there being two petty parties.

    The “MSM” didn’t lie.

    Trump and right wing media did, in a way that is both obvious and now typical.

    No so fast:

    ““When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best,” he said in the same speech. “They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

    from Donald Trump’s initial campaign announcement. June 25 2015

    No argument from me. He is not a good choice to represent the USA. I am not defending trump or the right. I do support stronger border security and he is right about them bringing in drugs, crime, and rape. Did you know that birth control is standard issue for young girls crossing the border?

    I am not trying to fool anyone. You made a false statement in an attempt to take a petty jab at trump while arguing that those on the right are worse. Your posts only support my position that followers of both parties resort to petty attacks.

    No.
    My posts expose that you are, no matter how hard you try to deny it, as MAGA as anyone on this board.

    Ad hom fallacies only reveal ones inability to defend a position on merit. This is not about me. Also, making claims to know my thoughts and beliefs comes at the expense of ones own credibility. I do not suckle from either partisan nipples, left or right.

    If you want to know what I think, you can ask me and I'll tell you. I am a left-leaning independent.

    Your words reveal who you are.

    "left-leaning independent"
    ain't it.

    "Nuh uh" is not a valid argument. My dot is on the lower left quadrant of the political scale based on issues. This discussion has nothing to do with the issues; its about the eagerness to attack others for no valid reason. I see two sides of the same ugly coin and your posts support my position on this issue. I already knew that followers of both parties see the faults in others and don't realize they are criticizing their own reflection.

    How can I be a MAGA when I voted against trump twice? I voted for Jo.

    ‘Actually, there is no evidence that immigrants bring crime or rape. These are age old anti immigrant tropes, and have been painted onto successive waves of immigrants over the years.

    The common right wing assertion about drugs makes no sense at all. Why would any drug dealer or cartel get immigrants and refugees to carry small amounts of drugs, The path is very risky. You can’t control when or where they are going to try and enter, or whether they get caught.

    why fool with that when you can ship reliably and in quantity by smuggling it onto truck and trains?

    we need to reform immigration, something the GOP likes to scare its base with, but won’t actually come tothe table over.

    Do you have any evidence that your claim over birth control and immigrants is true?????

    No one has taken shots at Trump's actual skin color. They have made fun of his MAKEUP. Please tell me you understand this basic fact.

    When Trump sends his supporters, he's not sending his best. He's sending people that have a lot of problems. He's bringing problems with us. He's bringing terrorism. He's bringing attacks on democracy. And some of his followers, I assume, are good people.

    Attention: this is meant as a parody of Trump's statement. I'm assuming parodies are allowed on the forum.
